If so do the roll over bars pop?

LVDell

Never hit Shenandoah......so I can't answer that. God, I hope I never heard those shotguns go off! From what I hear it is one scary BANG!

Anyway to manually release them?

LVDell

HMMMMM. I am thinking the dealer would have to do that. Somebody posted this in a thread recently. I thought it was here. Standby and let me see if I can find it............

LVDell

Damnit! I remember reading about that but forgot what thread. I need to run back through my posts. Gimme another minute

LVDell

Couldn't find it. Maybe it was over at Renntech.org

try posting there. Loren has more answers than Encyclopedia Britanica!

Let me know what you find out. It would be nice to have them in the up position. Kinda like proactive safety!

Try page 39-40 of your user's manual.

LVDell

Says nothing in the manual about manually releasing them. Does your p39-40 say something that the rest of ours doesn't???

Here is the original Thread with the answer in post #19. Looks like it is on a different page depending on your model year.

Already seen (and been a part of that thread), but.......

That states how to retract them NOT extract them.

Wouldn't the "retract procedure" followed in reverse, allow you to extend them?

LVDell

not to my knowledge. in the down postion the last thing you want to do is have your hand down there fiddling around with that cannon about to explode!

Paul 996

LOL, totally misread what he meant by "retract"

Patrick

Could you manually roll the car over?

1) find a REALLY big hill
2) build a ramp, preferably out of steel, although plywood and lumber might work too....
3) drive down hill at ramp as fast as you can
4) enjoy the rollbars popping
5) brace for impact
6) realize it was a bad idea
7) exit vehicle, hunt Brett down for his stupid suggestion.
